There are several photos of suicide by hanging shown in the Death Scenes book, I have included a few that I have colorized.
Hanging is a form of asphyxiation that typically results in death by either strangulation or a sudden disruption to the cervical spine (neck). When someone is hanged, a noose or other ligature is placed around the neck, and the person’s body weight applies pressure to the windpipe (trachea), major blood vessels, and nerves in the neck. This pressure can prevent oxygen from reaching the brain and block the flow of blood, leading to unconsciousness and death.
